Thank You for Visiting Vibra Hospital of Richmond

A High Quality Long Term Acute Care Facility

Vibra Healthcare is a national healthcare network focused on the extended
care needs of people with complex medical conditions. Vibra Hospital of
Richmond is a long term acute care facility, meaning we provide advanced
medical treatments for prolonged periods that traditional hospitals are
not designed for. Certain medical conditions, such as lung disease or
kidney failure, require focused patient care that can be most efficiently
provided for inpatients. We do not recommend patients for discharge until
we have helped them reach a point in their recovery where they can live
comfortably and safely at home.

Our Mission & Principles.

A Hospital Designed to Meet Your Every Need

We accept patients with a wide variety of medical needs and in order to
provide them with the best care possible, we have expanded our services
to offer patients and their families with numerous amenities for their
convenience. These include nutritional services, an onsite pharmacy for
medication assistance, case management, rehabilitation programs, a radiology
laboratory, and surgical services, and chaplaincy services. Treating a
patient’s condition is only half the battle, it is equally important
for us to help them feel more comfortable and relaxed in order to help
the healing process. Be sure to ask our staff for anything you or your
family may need while staying with us.

Celebrating Our Patients' Success.
